I don't blame promotion. I mean, so what she used B&D to promote the album? Everybody already knew HEAVEN, Fairyland and Step You at that point, plus, it's not like ONE performance for Walking Proud would make MY STORY sell much more. The album inclueded a picture booklet in first press! If that's not a big promotion, than I dunno what it is... I mean, Shibuya was packed with billboards; big screens all over Tokyo airing the CM... by now, of course they ended the promotion, I mean, the promotion for any album in Japan is over after a month (well, not for Koda Kumi, but she's the exception). It's so easy for us to say the reason why the album isn't doing very well is because people don't buy albums anymore or because she didn't sing the song we liked in TV shows, well, people, I think AVEX knows better than us and if they tought that was the right way to promote the album, they were probably closer to the truth than us.
That said, at least it was a small drop. No chance her sales will increase again, I think... but I do think it will reach a million copies.
